STW: Halo skinwall tires

[DM]

I think these have been discussed before, but now they're definitely available aftermarket. Brown skinwalls; Inverted tread or retro-looking off-road tread.

The Ison distribution site is a PITA and doesn't seem to be current, so here's a link to recent pics & info on Singletrack:

Not as boutique as Dugast etc. But a lot easier on the wallet than riding Porcs etc.

I gave up looking on the distributor's website, but UK prices are shown on that STW page.

I picked up a pair of skin wall Twin Rails last week for £20 each.
The Choir Master is also available in skin wall too for about £25 per tyre.

I'll post up some pictures of the Twin Rails later.

An idea of the weight ?

Charge also have some skinwalls.

As an aside has anyone saw the new skinny duster? Or read a reveiw? Looks and sounds very promising for a modern take on retro.

I saw the choir masters at Bike Radar on a bike, Looked great but in 2.5 would be far too fat for most my bikes :roll: I couldnt find any info about them anywhere.

Pics I took on my phone
